Agenda & News for OPEN WUaS Monthly Business MeetingWorld University and School1 A draft of the state of California's Bureau of Private Postsecondary BPPE licensing application is done. Now World University and School, needs the $5000 fee, which WUaS doesn't have, so the state of California can process this.
2
501 c 3 World University and School welcomes your tax deductible donations for this.

3 World University and School's Library Resources - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Library_Resources - presentation in the Wikidata Affinity Group chaired by Stanford librarian Hilary Thorsen will not occur tomorrow June 18th, and may be rescheduled for July 2nd (https://docs.google.com/presentation/... University and School is seeking online university libraries for online matriculating students for Bachelor, Ph.D. Medical, Law, and I.B. high school degrees in each of all ~200 nation states’ official / main languages.
Would collaborating with Harvard libraries be a possibility? And re: 'Collaborating with other universities and sharing collections will make 90 million books available to @HarvardLibrary users'https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2019/06/harvard-library-joins-forces-to-bring-90-million-books-to-users https://twitter.com/Harvard/status/1140081564480495616
4 Unfortunately, the $250,000 National Science Foundation award that WUaS thought World University and School was granted - since WUaS heard about this in January, and with this information went ahead and successfully procured a DUNS number from D&B (in NYC) as a next step in the funding process - has not come through, per a communication on April 30, 2019 from our Program Administrator at the NSF - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/05/rhododendron-arboreum-flower-of-nepal.html.WUaS had budgeted part of these monies for the initial BPPE fee, and part of these monies for accreditation potentially with WASC senior, and some of these monies to hire graduate student instructors to teach 'sections' online in group video conferencing to the best STEM CC-4 OpenCourseWare (OCW) faculty in video.
This has been a major setback in a number of ways, but especially with regards to initial BPPE licensing.
5World University and School is seeking further collaboration with Stanford Law and Stanford Medicine in all 200 countries' official / main languages for something like best STEM OpenCourseWare - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/05/common-blackbird-eggs-to-stanfords-john.html - and in particular is in communication about this with Stanford Chair and Professor of Medicine Robert Harrington MD, and Stanford Law Lecturer Roland Vogl.

Lion-tailed macaque: Stanford Design Impact Master's Class of 2019!, Let's stay in touch too about CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric wiki India World University and School, Appreciating too Samira Daswani's 'Meditation, Coaching, Therapy' approach to re-fram

Dear Sukhita, Sohini, Cynthia (and Bill - could you please forward this email to your wife - Samira and Abhay),
Very nice to talk with you after the Stanford Design Impact Master's Class presentations, and thanks for your excellent talks. (I felt there were some hippy influences in them in really great ways). I tweeted with a photo about this here -
Congratulations to the Stanford Design Impact Master's Class of 2019!

https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1140264253586206720

Let's stay in touch too about CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric wiki India World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/India - (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States) planned in Indian languages eg https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Bengali_language and https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Tamil_language and https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Punjabi_language and https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Hindi_language et al. Indeed, WUaS is planning online free-to-students' Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, M.D. and I.B. degrees in each of all ~200 countries' official languages and wiki schools for open teaching and learning in all 7,111 known living languages. There's so much design impact potential at World University and School, that I hope we can stay in touch about this in multiple ways.
Appreciating too Samira Daswani's 'Meditation, Coaching, Therapy' approach to re-framing (#4), and especially with regards to developing the Medical Schools at World University and Schools' approaches (in multiple languages) re online Psychiatry - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Psychiatry, Psychotherapy - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Psychotherapy, Psychoanalysis (Lacanian) - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Psychoanalysis and Meditation - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Meditation (and Yoga too - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Yoga - where asana could be construed as movement therapies) re some ideas Cynthia and I talked about. WUaS would both like to design with impact for these wiki subjects and related degrees, as well as rigorously study best practices and STEM approaches re related questions ... and potentially even re WUaS creating academic faculty and online MD careers (i.e. WUaS is seeking to create 2.2 million careers, about the size of Walmart, in all ~200 countries; see - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html).
Check out some of the ~2,500 MIT OCW courses in English in some of these Subjects - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - which will eventually be for credit in students' languages (e.g. https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/). Students will get MIT for free in many ways!
With regard to the creation of a realistic virtual earth, and re design impact (am thinking Google Streetview with TIME SLIDER, Maps, Earth, TensorFlow, Translate at the cellular and atomic levels, and with realistic avatar bots, and even eventually for medical practices like tele-robotic surgery), check out my actual-virtual ethnographic Harbin Hot Springs' field site -
Visit the Harbin gate in Google Street View here ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ where you can "walk" down the road '4 miles' to Middletown and 'amble' around the streets there, if inclined. And add some photos or videos if you have them - re a new social science method I'm developing - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - think ethnography as interpretive social science practices, wiki (think fast adding / curating of Wikipedia) and co-building of a virtual world (like in Sansar / Second Life /Open Simulator with avatar bots) but not cartoon-esque, rather realistically.
Thank you again for your excellent and inspiring presentations, and very nice to talk with you afterward.
All the best, and Namaste, Scott- http://scottmacleod.com/papers.htm- https://amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity

Galanthus nivalis: Libraries in Wikibase (re Wikidata / Wikipedia ...), WUaS Library Resources presentation this Thursday, Wikidata / Wikibase and the German National Library on Tu 18 June 2019 * * * In what ways could the http://worlduniversityandschool.o

Dear Klaus, (and Lydia, Hilary and Mike),

Very nice to meet and hear you at the Stanford Library talk on 'Content in Context: The Bavarian State Library in the Digital World, a Conversation with Klaus Ceynowa' in April 2017 - https://library.stanford.edu/events/content-context-bavarian-state-library-digital-world-conversation-klaus-ceynowa (and with, if I recall correctly, Mike Keller there. Did you introduce this Mike?) I'd also like to introduce you here to Hilary Thorsen, chair of the Stanford/Harvard/Cornell Wikidata Affinity Group, and a Stanford librarian.
Glad to know that, time permitting, I may be making a brief presentation about World University and School's Library Resources - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Library_Resources (planned in each of all ~300 languages in Wikidata / Wikipedia, and indeed in each of all 7,111 known living languages as wiki pages for open teaching and learning) with Wikidata / Wikibase as a "back end" structured knowledge database, for 5 minutes at the end of this on Tuesday's June 18th meeting at 9 am Pacific Time, which Stanford Wikidata Affinity Group is one hour long. (This video conference should be video recorded too).
Elena Aleynikova and Jens Ohlig of Wikimedia Deutschland have graciously offered to share a presentation about their work with the German National Library using Wikibase, as Hilary writes.
Call Details:June 18, 2019 9am PST / 12pm EST / 16:00 UTC / 6pm CEST (Time zone converter)Zoom link to join meeting: https://stanford.zoom.us/j/204437188 Agenda: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_VgK2C1AYI4qv3IpjJVfpFb8moGfWiAwTSTIbKqeTFg/edit?usp=sharing
Klaus and All, I've included below some of our correspondence from spring of 2017 for further related conversation.
All the best, Scott

--
From April 19, 2017 ...
Dear Dr. Elisabeth Niggermann,
Having met Dr. Klaus Ceynowa at a fantastic Stanford Library talk on "Content in Context: The Bavarian State Library in the Digital World, a Conversation with Klaus Ceynowa" - https://library.stanford.edu/events/content-context-bavarian-state-library-digital-world-conversation-klaus-ceynowa - I'm writing to you at his suggestion to inquire how World University and School might best collaborate with the German National Library (GNL). I'm writing in particular concerning exploring how the German National Library might orchestrate creating online libraries in all ~200 countries official languages with each country's national library + , which would develop out of the Bavarian National Library's great organizational approach (and potentially the GNL's especially) and which I learned about from Dr. Ceynowa's Stanford talk. (I'm including our email correspondence thus far below). Of course, this might include planning to develop online libraries in all 7,099 living languages in Ethnologue / 8,044 language entries in Glottolog - where linguists and academics would, in a parallel way, develop the WUaS wiki schools for this, again in all 7097 known living languages. (See, too, the ~12 main areas of focus for CC WUaS here - http://worlduniversityandschool.org ... which is like CC Wikipedia (in 358 languages) with CC MIT OpenCourseWare (in 7 languages) and CC Yale OYC - which will all become integrated in Wikidata/Wikibase, to which WUaS donated itself in October 2015, and probably also with Google Education, which WUaS has).
Best greetings from the San Francisco Bay Area, Scott

http://www.dnb.de/DE/Header/Kontakt/generaldirektion.html

Dear Klaus,
Thank you for your fabulous, wonderful and truly exemplar talk yesterday at Stanford - https://library.stanford.edu/events/content-context-bavarian-state-library-digital-world-conversation-klaus-ceynowa .
I asked about your and the Bavarian state library's guidelines for working with other Bundeslaendern, other countries and, for example, Europeana, because I greatly appreciated the organizational focus you are bringing to Bayern's libraries as a system. You are making real what other library systems might seek to do, but haven't successfully done yet - you have a much broader overview in these regards than I do, however - as I see it. I also appreciated your response concerning openness as a guideline for you.
I also asked because CC World University and School, which is like CC Wikipedia (in 300 languages) with CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare (in its 5 languages) and CC Yale OYC would like to create both libraries (and museums) in all 8,496 entries in languages (per Glottolog) / and in all 7,111 living languages (per Ethnologue) - each a wiki subject page to begin. This would emerge from this beginning "Library Resources"' wiki subject page - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Library_Resources - into all 7097 languages, after WUaS moves to a new wiki, emerging from Wikidata, Wikpedia's database in 300 languages. Perhaps a good way for you to visualize this is here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2015/11/lions-in-trees-all-libraries-all.html - where one could, in a realistic virtual earth, such as conceptually in Google Streetview with TIME SLIDER, go virtually into this pretty Swiss library and pick a digital book from its shelf, from any time in history (with time slider). From a structured data perspective - such as the one Wikidata (which is mostly based in Berlin and somewhat in San Francisco with the Wikimedia Foundation) is developing - each book in any library in any of the ~200 countries in the world at present could have something like a Q-item number (Wikidata's basic unit) or similar.
(World University and School would like our matriculating students in our developing online major CC MIT OCW-centric universities, in all ~200 countries' official languages - and studying for online free CC OpenCourseWare Bachelor, Ph.D., law and medicine degrees, as well as I.B. (International Baccalaureate) high school diplomas - to have access to greatest online university academic libraries, perhaps different from the public libraries, for example, in the U.S.)
WUaS would also like to develop an WUaS Universal Translator, perhaps building on Google Neural Machine Translation / GNMT /Google Translate, such that an anthropologist or linguist or librarian could go into any physical library in the world and hold their smartphone up to a document in any language and read it translated into their own language - and also photograph the document (observing copyright law, etc.). (You'll find the beginning WUaS Universal Translator link in my blog entry above).
How might we further communicate and collaborate about much of this? Would the Bavarian State Library be available to orchestrate creating online libraries in all ~200 countries official languages with their national libraries, which would develop out of the BSL's great organizational approach? Of course, this might include planning to develop online libraries in all 7,111 living languages - where linguists and academics would, in a parallel way, develop the WUaS wiki schools for this, again in all 7097 known living languages. (See, too, the ~12 main areas of focus for WUaS here - http://worlduniversityandschool.org - which will all become integrated in Wikidata/Wikibase and probably also with Google Education, which WUaS has).

Thank you for your inspiring and great talk, Klaus. It makes me want to return to Munich and visit your library, as well as my friends, and Quakers, Eckhard and Liesl Krueger (who no longer live in Garching, however) and their two sons, as well as other possible friends from the 13 months I spent in Munich in 1981-82 in the Reed College program, as well as at LMU.
Best regards, Scott

Dear Scott,the Mail-Adress seems ok, the name of the Director General is Dr. Elisabeth Niggemann.I think your mail will then be distributed to her via their internal system.All best, Klaus

Dear Klaus,
Thank you for your email. And I continue to be impressed with the realization of the Bavarian State Library system now in the information age.
I wonder how the Bavarian State Library might benefit from a relationship with the German National Library concerning the all-libraries in all 7097 languages' World University and School online project I mentioned. And could you possibly please suggest the proper contact person, or refer me to a colleague you know at Frankfurt or Leipzig. Who is the Director General, in your role, at the German National Library? I found this email address - demail-postfach@dnb.de-mail.de - here www.dnb.de - but am not sure that sending an email to the Director General of the General Nation Library would get through.  Also, I'm glad to say my actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' book ~ http://amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity ~ is in the following libraries: UC Berkeley, Princeton University's and the University of Alberta in Canada, and per WorldCat here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/03/california-valley-oak-my-naked-harbin.html. I would also be happy to mail one to you myself at the wholesale cost (~US$39,00) plus shipping.

Dear Klaus,
I received an email from Gmail saying that there is a temporary problem with this email - demail-postfach@dnb.de-mail.de - and that they will try to deliver it within the next 48 hours. ...
Might I also put you in contact with Lydia Pintscher in Berlin, who is Wikidata's Product Manager? (CC-4 MIT OCW-centric in its 5 languages - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/ - wiki World University and School donated itself to CC Wikidata in October 2015, and will therefore emerge in the next while from CC Wikipedia's database in its 358 languages, and eventually into all 7,111 living languages). Thank you very much.
Best regards, Scott

How best would you suggest getting in touch with the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek to explore moving forward this great potential for collaboration, and creation of online wiki libraries in all 7,099 languages (Ethnologue), and indeed, in all 8,044 entries in languages (in Glottolog) - and re Wikidata (in 358 languages) with the BNL and especially the GNL's great systems?
Thank you.
Best greetings from the SF Bay Area, Scott

Peristeria elata: Haverford College (Philadelphia) Quaker Higher Education conference in 2014 which @WorldUnivAndSch @WUaSPress attended - Nontheist Friends (atheist Quakers) * * * Hoping to develop Harvard Law Emeritus Charlie Nesson's edX HarvardX JuryX

Thanks, Dirk! Yes, and am hoping to develop Harvard Law Emeritus Charlie Nesson's edX HarvardX JuryX course's THREADS' technology (asynchronous conversations in text, for one - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/02/wandering-albatross-heres-mention-of.html) as one of 3 main teaching modalities at World University and School - in addition to 2) graduate students teaching sections in video conferencing to MIT OCW faculty in video, and 3) independent study of matriculated students of MIT OCW courses, with graduate students engaging WUaS students' work for some kind of related assessment.

Here's the United Nations wiki subject at WUaS - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/United_Nations - with not too many related MIT OCW courses yet.
How are you doing?

Was excited yesterday to see a number of A) drone videos or her property from 2018 on Lynn's computer, some photos of her B) Watsu pool from possibly a decade ago, and C) a video of Lynn giving Kathleen Watsu in Florida around 1999 in Florida, with underwater videography as well.

Am interested, with these very media, in creating a prototype visit to virtual Harbin for giving and receiving Watsu from one's bath tub and via ethnographic-wiki-virtual-world-graphy (ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy) ... and also re making her property come alive (both as 3D museum as well as archive/library). This would further involve developing a video-to-3D-virtual-world conversion application so we could even begin to explore separating Lynn from Kathleen in the 3D virtual world, and thus so that their realistic avatar bots could instruct independently, or do solo water dance ... and all observable from a digital mask while soaking in a bath tub. ...
